I Joined Curves Today!!!

[BethR]

I have been waiting for it since the spring and today was our Curves' Opening Day!

Got the whole speil today, got weighed and measured (UGH!!!) and they demonstrated a few machines, and then I signed my life away. (Well, at least a year of it. )

Tomorrow it is back to be shown the whole workout.

From everything that I have read here, I am really looking forward to this.

I think you will love Curves, Beth. Its gotten so I am sort of blue on my non-Curves days. I have such great support there - everyone from the staff to all the members is so nice and friendly.

Congrats on signing up, and let us know how you like it!

Hi Beth,
Congrats on joining Curves. One of these day's I will have to check out our local Curves. It sounds fun. At the moment, my life is too hectic! I hope you enjoy it!

That is one of the best things about Curves...the workout is only 1/2 hour. My days are pretty busy with working full time and taking care of the house and kids. (DH works 2 jobs..so not much help there) BUT I can fit in that short of time for myself. It's close to home so the whole thing is 45 minutes max.

Enjoy it! Though I don't belong to Curves, I do go to Contours Express (similar) and I LOVE it. I signed up for 3 months to make sure I liked it and would continue and now I KNOW I will. I've found that if I'm in a bad mood when I get home, the best thing is to go down and do that work out. By the end of my work out, I am feeling better.

Way to go, Beth! When I met a friend for lunch on Friday, she mentioned Curves. Let us know how you like it!!

I just got back from Curves - I'm a real fan! I usually go 3x a week - will probably only make it twice this week - considering going more often. It's funny - it takes longer to get up to my target heart rate than when I first started.

Hi All!

Went back today to be shown the whole circuit. It was not hard (well not THAT hard, I am so uncoordinated sometimes ) . Even though we only ended up going around 2x and then we were shown the stretches, I still feel like I have worked out.
Wonder how my muscles will feel tomorrow?


Julie, sounds like you are in better shape than when you started! I do recall from my Jackie Sorensen Aerobic Dancing days that the lower your heart rate, the healthier you were - or something like that.

Beth,

Congratulations on joining Curves. I'm so glad that you are enjoying it.

Any steps towards good health deserves a thumbs up!

Congrats, Beth! I don't think you'll regret it. I've been doing Curves for almost 8 months now, and I am the "number 3 loser" as far as total weight and inches lost! The results have been great ... and they are another "support group" in addition to my WISH friends which is just an added bonus.

Keep us posted on how you like it, and how you're doing.

Congratulations on taking the plunge!!

I joined in September, and I've been going just about every day after work.
And I find that I get grumpy if I don't go. I usually go 2 1/2 times around... or more- and I feel like I've accomplished something by the time I leave.

I can tell that my blood is really pumping by the time I work on my cool-down.

Congratulations on joining Curves, Beth!! That is great news!!

Congratulations
I just joined today.......
looking forward to more success!

So glad that you decided to join!

I have been there 4 times this week. (First day to join, second day to be shown how to use the machines, third and fourth day to work out. ) It is fun, not hard, and you are done quickly. Before you know it, it is time to stretch.

I have been reading the Membership Guide. I am finding that interesting and inspirational.

I hope that you will enjoy it too!
